 Definition of Queue
 A Queue is an ordered collection of items from which
items may be deleted at one end (called the front of the
queue) and into which items may be inserted at the other
end (the rear of the queue).
 The first element inserted into the queue is the first
element to be removed. For this reason a queue is
sometimes called a FIFO (first-in first-out) list as opposed
to the stack, which is a LIFO (last-in first-out).

QINSERT(QUEUE, N, FRONT, REAR, ITEM)
1. If FRONT = 1 and REAR = N, or FRONT = REAR + 1, then :
write OVERFLOW, and Return.
2. If FRONT = NULL, then:
Set FRONT := 1 and REAR := 1.
Else if REAR = N, then:
Set REAR := 1.
Else :
Set REAR := REAR + 1.
3. Set QUEUE[REAR]:= ITEM.

2. Set TEMP := FRONT
3. Set ITEM :=INFO[TEMP]
4. FRONT :=LINK[TEMP]
5. LINK[TEMP] = AVAIL and AVAIL = TEMP
6. Exit
 Priority Queue
 More specialized data structure.
 Similar to Queue, having front and rear.
 Items are removed from the front.
 Items are ordered by key value so that the item with the
lowest key (or highest) is always at the front.
 Items are inserted in proper position to maintain the order.
 Deques
 It is a double-ended queue.
 Items can be inserted and deleted from either ends.
 More versatile data structure than stack or queue.
 E.g. policy-based application (e.g. low priority go to the
end, high go to the front)
